Love the variety MrMike. I especially like the ones with the greens. I don't think I've seen much of that yet. Nicely done. You're going to make me start rolling some again, but I have got alot of catching up to do with other material. Dave

Nice results with nice material. Really liking them all. Your 2 to 3 months in coarse paid off.

Great color in that material. I bought some a few years ago but the stuff I got was too pitted to mess with. Yours sure made great tumbles.

Nice batch, Mike! Those can be a tricky tumble. I'm partial to #3 and #5.

Her husband salted that creek with 12 tons of agate to reduce the travel budget. Rock hunting by day, Ritz at night, private jet to and from. A whole team of young firemen to pack her boxes and ship them. Sad.
